# rhdf5 <img align = "right" src="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Bioconductor/BiocStickers/master/rhdf5/rhdf5.png" height="200"> This R/Bioconductor package provides an interface between HDF5 and R. HDF5's main features are the ability to store and access very large and/or complex datasets and a wide variety of metadata on mass storage (disk) through a completely portable file format. The rhdf5 package is thus suited for the exchange of large and/or complex datasets between R and other software package, and for letting R applications work on datasets that are larger than the available RAM. ## Current Status | GitHub Actions | Bioconductor Build Sysytem | Test Coverage | | ------------- |-------------| ----- | | [](https://github.com/grimbough/rhdf5/actions/workflows/main.yml) | [](http://bioconductor.org/checkResults/devel/bioc-LATEST/rhdf5/) | [](https://codecov.io/gh/grimbough/rhdf5) | ## Contact For bug reports, please register an [issue](https://github.com/grimbough/rhdf5/issues) here on Github.
